best thing about the anime adaptation is that it explains things better than the manga.


Mostly because the manga's translation isn't official so it's super inconsistent whereas the subs are obviously more competent.

Can confirm. The anime dialogue is pretty much all taken word for word from the manga.

Next episode: "The Challengers". Yup, we will reach that part. I'm so excited!! Prepare tissues for next episode and get ready for greatest dad!


It seems you don't use your brain. Do you REALLY think they can fit 16 chapters in 60 minutes? You know, it's not that hard to realise this, just have to think a little.


I don't remember the source for what I'm about to say, so apologies if it turns out to be inaccurate, but I believe the director said the ending of the anime would be rather rushed... that's the last thing I'm hoping for though.

Why I'm always holding my laugh when I see the comment section about Made in Abyss episode *lol

I'll keep the spoiler myself, pretty sure most of you that'll be watching the next episode will be shocked.

But what I'm worried about is the title for the next episode, "The Challenger", I hope the studio didn't butchered the story

If they're going for this, there's no middle ground. It will either be terrible or masterful (and i hope it's the latter)

I haven't read the manga, but at the pace we're going and what manga readers claim is a decent ending for the series, we will have to rush through everything to get to that certain point. Now it's just a matter of waiting to see what the director has truly planned for this last episode.

This ship at the beginning was really nice to look at

Nanachi is the best.
She was so cute when she was embarrassed that her food tasted bad!


I really hope we get another season, 'cause we need more of her!

dankd3r3 said:
Sigh one more episode left and I haven't even been properly disturbed by this show yet.

I thought Nanachi was just pretending to be nice and was actually plotting to kill them both, and then upon realizing this Reg would attempt to escape with Riko. Then he realizes that Riko is now dead. He mourns her death, and then he remembers the cube in Ozen's chamber. He ascends back to Seeker Camp, shoves Riko's corpse back in, Riko comes back to life but is now a zombie, and her longing for the abyss more intense than ever :o Come on guys what the heck

I read the part of the manga from chapter 23-42 today. So the first 12 episodes of the show cover roughly the first 22 chapters, the last episode will likely cover from chapter 23-38 but it will be an hour long (the length of 3 episodes roughly). Chapter 38 and episode 13 are both called "the challengers" and that concludes the next story arc, it seems like the logical place to end the season.

At first this would seem bad, I mean condensing 16 chapters into just 3 episodes is rough. I think however that it's easily doable. The plot for most of it is a lot more straightforward and can probably be covered a lot faster.Theres also several chapters that are for the most part battles with a few lines that would probably only take a few minutes in anime form. With how complicated the battle panels are, they don't usually put words in during them, and instead put panels between them for dialogue. I really think its very doable without even making it feel very rushed. Perhaps 1 more episode would be ideal but it could still be satisfying regardless. I also expect the flashbacks to take a lot less time in the anime.

Naming the episode the challengers also makes me think its very unlikely for them to give it an anime original ending to quickly wrap things up since the manga clearly hasn't ended yet.

I'm so happy that Kiyui is doing much better now. I was worried when Kiyui got sick, I thought he was going to die. I guess staying FAR AWAY FROM THE FUCKING CRATER FROM HELL helps a lot :D

Mitty mounted Riko-chan and was like, "BITCH, my body made that medicine! You better be grateful!" lol

Damn, Nanachi went from "Mitty's my bff" to "Please kill her." D:

Yeah, during the eye sequence you hear a girl cry continuously on Mitty's side, heart-wrenching.

Kiyui is safe at least. The birthday disease is pretty weird, closest thing it reminds me of is chronical malaria, which means a parasite should be in conjonction with the force field.

THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I think it's nice this episode gives more screen time for characters outside of the Abyss even if it wasn't long.

For some reason, I really like Nanachi and Reg's character chemistry this episode. Not to mention, Reg is able to learn more valuable survival skills from Nanachi. I feel like this episode is setting up for the finale.

Mitty is such a weird creature imo. I felt bad for Riko still, the things she's going through is hard to imagine from her point of view. I love the way they used the psychology of this episode still. The way that Reg returned to take on the monster that previously hurt Riko was rather thrilling.

I feel the same way. I wonder how the infinity bell ties in with the Oro(and other creatures), that can 'see the future'.

I was kinda expecting Leader to still be chasing after them or they would find Leader dead deeper in the abyss. Maybe a scene showing his perspective chasing after them and then stopping at the 2nd layer or something?

I really liked Nanachi and Regu interacting this episode. The explanation about the curse was really interesting and that Mitty scene oh man preparing myself for some tragic backstory :(.

Damn the whole pretty much invisible cloth Abyss curse thing is pretty cool and interesting, like what a strange way to be horribly cursed for the rest of your life lol.

Also Reg is sooooo COOL!!

And yay Nanachi is probably coming with Reg and Riko for the rest of the adventure because why else would she ask Reg to kill Mitty?

Riko being unconscious throughout entire two episodes sure made me realize that I don't like her much... or should I say, as a character she is rather good but she really shouldn't be in this series. She worked really good as a character in the opening few episodes where danger wasn't that big but here... I can't think about her in any other way than extra burden to carry.

Truly if this was a game and those would be the characters that players play as any reasonable party would kick her out and tell her to go to the first dungeon to level up first.

In any case, I really look forward to Nanachi and Mitty's full backstory as it will definitely be good and completely mess up.

Like others have said, it's surprising that Reg didn't collapse after firing his Incinerator. I do hope it's a foreshadowing and not an oversight by the writers, cause it'll really suck if it's the latter.

Nanachi remains the best character in the show. I'm also more curious about Mitty's real identity now.

I think that course explanation makes sense, but there is a traggic story behind Nanachi and Mitty that we don't know. Reg improved his skills with Nanachi's help and defeated the spikes monster. So what is the story behind Mitty?
This story is not going to finish, I think, they are in the fourth layer and they need to get to the seventh.

So I was right that Mitty was Nanachi's partner in crime in her flashback. Wonder why she wants to kill Mitty D: maybe to stop leading a life where you can't really survive on your own? or because Mitty told Nanachi to kill her long ago and she never could :( that's so sad...

Nanachi is really familiar with what's going on in the abyss.
So as long as anyone goes outside of the island that is surrounding the abyss, they won't get affected by the curse! The citizens need to learn this lifesaving phenomenon!

I hope they conclude this first season well in the next episode because the plot has thickened...
